Question Removing factory A/C

My previous owner took off the compressor, hoses and all hardware for the stock A/C. It still has all the pieces on the firewall, but since I'm missing so many parts, I'm just going to rip it all out.
I don't need heat since I live in FL, and may in the future go with a aftermarket A/C setup.
Any pointers or things I have to watch out for. Do I need to take off the passenger fender to get to a few bolts?
(Yes I used the search tool)
Thanks.

Re: Removing factory A/C

When I took mine off to change out my heater core I had to pull the pass. side hood hinge and I also dropped the fender down. If you leave it off you'll have to cover the hole with something. I've seen a few guys on here weld in a patch that looked really clean. Hope this helps.
